Finding replacement parts for damaged Arrihead 1 camera head handwheel thumb knobs

12 years old. Gear and prices may have changed since.

What the thread found

  • When a thumb knob on an Arrihead handwheel becomes damaged and affects rotation, replacement parts can be sourced through rental facilities rather than waiting for factory service
  • Rental companies that stock used Arrihead parts, such as those operating in Munich and Berlin, have been known to provide same-day shipping for replacement components
  • Service technicians at equipment rental facilities may have spare parts available for purchase when factory support is unavailable

Depends on

  • The discussion focuses on a specific incident with an Arrihead 1 model
  • Response time and parts availability depend on which rental facility is contacted and their current inventory
  • The example cited involved an Arrihead 2, not the original model in question
